Book Introduction to Holography

Download or read book Introduction to Holography written by Vincent Toal and published by CRC Press. This book was released on 2022-12-13 with total page 449 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This fully updated second edition of Introduction to Holography provides a theoretical background in optics and holography with a comprehensive survey of practical applications. It is intended for the non-specialist with an interest in using holographic methods in research and engineering. The text assumes some knowledge of electromagnetism, although this is not essential for an understanding of optics, which is covered in the first two chapters. A descriptive approach to the history and principles of holography is followed by a chapter on volume holography. Essential practical requirements for successful holographic recording are explained in detail. Recording materials are considered with detailed discussions of those in common use. Properties peculiar to holographically reconstructed images are emphasised as well as applications for which holography is particularly suitable. Mathematical tools are introduced as and when required throughout the text with important results derived in detail. In this new edition, topics such as photopolymers, dynamic holographic displays, holographic optical elements, sensors, and digital holography are covered in greater depth. New topics have been added, including UV and infrared holography, holographic authentication and encryption, as well as particle beam, X-ray, and acoustic holography. Numerical problems are provided at the end of each chapter. This book is suitable for undergraduate courses and will be an important resource for those teaching optics and holography. It provides scientists and engineers with knowledge of a wide range of holographic applications in research and industry, as well as an understanding of holography’s potential for future use.

Book Sensing Issues in Civil Structural Health Monitoring

Download or read book Sensing Issues in Civil Structural Health Monitoring written by Farhad Ansari and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2005-07-14 with total page 552 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Civil infrastructure systems are generally the most expensive assets in any country, and these systems are deteriorating at an alarming rate. In addition, these systems have a long service life in comparison to most other commercial products. As well, the introduction of intelligent materials and innovative design approaches in these systems is painfully slow due to heavy relianceon traditional construction and maintenance practices, and the conservative nature of design codes. Feedback on the "state of the health" of constructed systems is practically nonexistent. In the quest for lighter, stronger and corrosion-resistant structures, the replacement of ferrous materials by high-strength fibrous ones is being actively pursued in several countries around the world, both with respect to the design of new structures as well as for the rehabilitation and strengthening of existing ones. In North America, active research in the design of new highway bridges is focused on a number of specialty areas, including the replacement of steel reinforcing bars in concrete deck slabs by randomly distributed low-modulus fibers, and the replacement of steel prestressing cables for concrete components by tendons comprising super-strong fibers. Research is also being conducted on using FRPs to repair and strengthen existing structures.

Book Handbook of Digital Imaging

Download or read book Handbook of Digital Imaging written by Michael Kriss and published by John Wiley & Sons. This book was released on 2015-02-16 with total page 1936 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A comprehensive and practical analysis and overview of the imaging chain through acquisition, processing and display The Handbook of Digital Imaging provides a coherent overview of the imaging science amalgam, focusing on the capture, storage and display of images. The volumes are arranged thematically to provide a seamless analysis of the imaging chain from source (image acquisition) to destination (image print/display). The coverage is planned to have a very practical orientation to provide a comprehensive source of information for practicing engineers designing and developing modern digital imaging systems. The content will be drawn from all aspects of digital imaging including optics, sensors, quality, control, colour encoding and decoding, compression, projection and display. Contains approximately 50 highly illustrated articles printed in full colour throughout Over 50 Contributors from Europe, US and Asia from academia and industry The 3 volumes are organized thematically for enhanced usability: Volume 1: Image Capture and Storage; Volume 2: Image Display and Reproduction, Hardcopy Technology, Halftoning and Physical Evaluation, Models for Halftone Reproduction; Volume 3: Imaging System Applications, Media Imaging, Remote Imaging, Medical and Forensic Imaging 3 Volumes www.handbookofdigitalimaging.com

Book The Integrated Practitioner

Download or read book The Integrated Practitioner written by Justin Amery and published by CRC Press. This book was released on 2024-09-06 with total page 842 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This extraordinary new series fills a void in practitioner development and well-being. The books take a reflective step back from the tick-box, target-driven and increasingly regulated world of 21st century health practice; and invite us to revisit what health and health practice actually are. Building carefully on the science and philosophy of health, each book addresses the messy, complex and often chaotic world of real-life health practice and offers an ancient but now almost revolutionary understanding for students and experienced practitioners alike: that health practice is a fundamentally creative and compassionate activity. Integrating Everything Turning Tyrants into Tools in Health Practice Co-creating in Health Practice Surviving and Thriving in Health Practice Food for Thought

Download or read book Shouting into the Mist written by Stephen James Kinkade and published by Covenant Books, Inc.. This book was released on 2019-05-07 with total page 101 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Shouting into the Mist is a contemplative self-reflection based on the theory of perception and the inescapable existential component of human existence. Any manifestation of life has a message which is shouted to an ultimately indefinable audience, to be understood and misunderstood, as well as interpreted, reinterpreted, and misinterpreted. Through one's journey in life, and how that life intertwines with other lives amidst the balance of social constructivism, temporal concepts reveal the fragile malleability of history, fact, and existence of the individual and humanity. Arranged in multiple shouts of narratives, poetry, and essays, Shouting into the Mist started as a journal of exploration into the beautiful chaos of the individual's confoundingly simplistic nature. The themes and self-reflections served as a cultivation mechanism for meditative thought and purposeful dissociation, to enhance theoretical understanding and application of counseling techniques and methodology. Forever in search of the indefinable within the self, scrutinizing dichotomies explore the crevices of the moral psyche, self-concept, and autonomy, as they have been done, are done, and will be done for years to come.
